ISEMAN WRITES BLUE-RIBBON ENGLISH PAPER

Honors Thesis, "A Perfect Sympathy," On Lamb and Thomas Browne, Only One Published This Year

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED June 16, 1937

Joseph S. Iseman '37 has earned the distinction not only of having his thesis published but of having been awarded that honor in a year when the Committee on the Publication of Honors Theses In English has decided to publish only one such student work.

Title of Iseman's research and writing is "A perfect Sympathy" a study of the influence of Sir Thomas Browne upon Charles lamb.

Describing the winning thesis, a member of the Committee yesterday termed it a "scholarly, urbane literary essay, showing Lamb's interest in Browne, their similar temperaments that there was something skin in the souls of both men."
